When things are difficult, gratitude can feel out of reach. That's when it's important to remember that gratitude isn't an act of complacency. It can be an act of resistance - a way to know you matter, a way to find strength and resilience. www.wbur.org/onpoint/2025...

Fifteen years ago (a long time for tech), my lab showed not only that people were willing to engage in conversation with social tech, but that we could manipulate their moral beliefs around trust by having the robot send different nonverbal signals. Imagine what today's tech can do.

With political violence, social division, & despair on the rise, the US has clearly lost its way. I talked with Krista Tippett & @chrismurphyct.bsky.social about why the country is facing a spiritual, not just political, crisis and how to find our way back. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/h...

I completely understand having some concern about profit motives in Big Pharma & Big Ag/Food, but when it makes you cynical about medical science in general, it can go bad fast. And among some in this community, it turns into conspiracy. Devout Christian Francis Collins has it right. RFK is wrong 🧵

Prayer & action should go together. But the left makes a mistake when it cedes spiritual language & motives to the right or says things that seem to condemn faith practices -- practices that help people in times of distress. From my session at @aspenideas.bsky.social, here's Rabbi Shira Stutman 1/2

Men in the US are facing a crisis of meaning. Many are turning to Christianity for answers. I talk with Richard Reeves, @drmoore.bsky.social & Rasool Berry about how we got here, how religion can help men find their way, and its potential dangers if not done right. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/h...

As Americans leave organized religion, the moral & emotional needs once met by faith communities remain. Is there a danger in leaving faith, or can we adapt its wisdom to meet our needs today? My discussion with Krista Tippet, Father Greg Boyle, & Rabbi Shira Stutman www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJAJ...

While it's true that the idea of hell can cause stress and fear, @shadihamid.bsky.social argues that, somewhat paradoxically, it can also offer an opportunity to chill -- a relief of responsibility to ensure complete justice now while maintaining solace that it will be meted out. 🧵

Doubt isn't the death of faith -- it often provides a route to renewal and new revelation. Here's friend of the show Rabbi Angela Buchdahl talking about how that idea is baked into the fabric of Judaism itself. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/h...

The idea that everything in the world has some form of consciousness might seem like an ancient fairy tale. But it's making a serious comeback. I talk with Philip Goff and Joanna Leidenhag about why we should take it seriously & its links to world religions. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/h...
